Communication effects in public good games with and without provision points

Krishnamurthy, Sandeep - In: Research in experimental economics : Vol. 8, (pp. 25-46). 2001

In this study, 1 investigated the impact of pre-play, non-binding, face-to-face communication on contributions in continuous and provision point games. I find that such communication increases cooperation leading to greater contributions. This effect is found both in the short-term (i.e. periods...

Rationing supply capacity shocks: A laboratory comparison of second best mechanisms

Elliott, Steven Robert; Brown Kruse, Jamie; Schulze, William - In: Research in experimental economics : Vol. 8, (pp. 153-183). 2001

This chapter compares four methods of rationing an input that is subject to supply capacity shocks. We describe the application of the mechanisms in terms of electricity. The mechanisms we test are random interruption, priority service, proportional service%all option and proportional...

Search behavior of the multiproduct monopolist: Experimental results

Kelly, Frank S. - In: Research in experimental economics : Vol. 8, (pp. 117-152). 2001

Subjects in the role of multiproduct monopolists are observed in markets where demand is initially unknown. In each market period, the seller must choose between selling each good individually or selling a bundle containing one unit of each good. The fact that individual and collective...

Feedback in voluntary contribution mechanisms: An experiment in team production

Croson, Rachel Toni Algaze - In: Research in experimental economics : Vol. 8, (pp. 85-97). 2001

Alchian and Demsetz's (1972) classic paper models team production as a public good. They claim detection of individual effort levels, rather than aggregate effort levels, reduces shirking (free riding). This chapter experimentally tests this claim. Participants are informed either about the...

Voluntary contributions to a multiple threshold public good

Chewning, Eugene G.; Coller, Maribeth; Laury, Susan K. - In: Research in experimental economics : Vol. 8, (pp. 47-83). 2001

Many public goods may be characterized as having multiple provision points. These goods are provided in discrete rather than continuous quantities and only if specified minimal levels of funding are attained. This chapter describes an experiment that examines allocations to a multiple provision...
